"One of my Dad's favorite country
music artists is Charley Pride. He is remembered more for his romantic
crooning songs in pop culture than for his religious songs, but he
recorded some delightful heartfelt music dedicated to expressing the
importance of Christ's death and resurrection, . . .
"A song of Pride's that alludes to the salvation Christ works for us is 'Whispering Hope' from the album Did You Think to Pray.
It struck me as I heard the lyrics that this song hits upon something
profoundly true in our human experience: hope is a quiet whispering
sound, and it's often difficult to hear it over the raucous calls to
despair blaring out all around us."
In a recent commentary, Brother Macarius Bunch, O.P.,
reflected on the hope that is offered through Jesus' tranquil voice and our call to bring to others the message of hope it reflects.
